  1. Re:Appeal to Expert logical fallacy on Climate Modeller Wins $10,000 Wager Against Solar Physicists, Fails To Collect (blogspot.com) · · Score: 1

    Your problem is that you do not understand what a DNA test means,. You haven't read the report on the DNA testing of Warren. The report says she has ten times more Native American DNA than the average Utah resident (which was the main reference DNA material). You are basically only partially able to read advanced material and understand it. You are so deep into your political belief that every thought you have is polluted by ignorance promoted by the current crop og GOP maggots. I assume this is from a recent partial encephalectomy.

  2. Sigh. Warren doesn't have 1/1024th native American ancestry. We have no idea how much she has. This is not how DNA testing works. The only thing your post shows is that you are ignorant as well as retarded. I hope you get well soon, while recovering from your partial encephalectomy, read the paragraph below to cure some of your ignorance.

    • They tested 1/1000 of her DNA and compared it to a variety of other people
    • The test concluded "the results strongly support the existence of an unadmixed Native American ancestor in the individual's pedigree, likely in the range of 6-10 generations ago".
    • Ms Warren had 10 times more Native American ancestry than the reference set from Utah and 12 times more than the set from Britain
    • the long segment on Chromosome 10 indicated the DNA came from a relatively recent ancestor

    So, the problem is that you are ignorant. You are probably semi-illiterate, and your partial encephalectomy has made it difficult for anyone to cure your moronic ignorance.

  3. You cannot prove that God exists or doesn't exist, because by definition God would be outside the limits of any such proof.

    This is a common, and quite ignorant, argument often heard from Christians. It's a dumb argument. Firstly, proving that God exists is trivial. You produce him. Measure him. Publish a report on this. Boom. His existence is proven. You are correct that his non-existence can not be proven. Non-existence can't be proven by anyone. You can't prove that pink unicorns that go invisible as soon as someone tries to observe them do not exist. The fact that we can't prove they do not exist does not make it sane to think they do.

    Now, if it is impossible to prove that God exists, then he doesn't. You see, if it impossible to prove he exists, then he can not be measured, directly or indirectly. If he can't be measured or the result of his existing can not be measured that means that God can not have any kind of impact on anything measurable in this universe. Remember, we can not measure gravity, but we can measure the effect it has on the universe, so we knows it exists, not by observing it, but by observing its effects. If God can not have an impact on the universe, then he doesn't exist. End of story.

    Believing God exists is a mental illness. Prevalent, but an illness still.

  4. Sigh. The delusion is the religious who cling to ancient beliefs despite all evidence they are mentally ill.

  5. Go see a psychiatrist. Your paranoia is acting up.

    You can't actually be serious. Mac market share rose slightly when the iPhone was introduced. Then it dropped a bit again, and is still hovering somewhere between 9 and 10% of the market. By any standard, Mac on the desktop is mostly irrelevant. It'll get less relevant over time. Particularly these days when a dev shop don't need a Mac to write and debug software for iOS.

    You and Weatherbug are right on this one. Everyone who claims this is caused by climate change should be hanged, dragged and quartered. Not because AGW is not real, but because there is no scientific support for this notion. In fact, over the past 15 years or so, the US has been at a "hurricane drought".

    How would they accomplish this. Typescript compiles to Javascript, and the typescript compiler is open source. Were you born retarded or did it develop later in life.

  20. But some folks do, and last time I checked, there was no law against being a moran

    If you work professionally with DDE when Microsoft has been telling you for decades (yes, decades) to stop, then you should be summarily fired from your job as being entirely unqualified for it.

    there is no need to retire it.

    That's the point. There is a strong need to retire it. It's unsafe.

    perhaps any one or group that works with MS Office is a moron?

    I have written a few applications and app integrations with MS Office over the years. I stopped using DDE in the early 1990s, there are good alternatives. Anyone who works with Office AND has used DDE since the mide 1990s is a moron. Someone who should be fired for incompetence.

    How are you supposed to build long lived systems

    By using a proper build system. Easy.

    We have a larger project that has evolved a lot over time. It has aspects that are written in Javascript+JQuery only, other pieces are using Knockout. We moved quite a bit of our stuff to AngularJS a good while back, but paused to move it all to Angular in the beta phase of Angular 2 as it was called at the time. Moving from AngularJS to Angular 2 took a bit of work, but moving from 2 to 5 has not really required any code update on our part. Changing the HTTP client in v5 took about 1 hour, and was trivial.

    The current animosity towards JS frameworks appears to me to be based mostly on ignorance.
